Upcoming events:

Savak, the Brooklyn-based band that includes members of Obits, Holy Fuck, The Cops, and Edsel, return to WFMU to play a live set on The Evan “Funk” Davies Show! Savak have just released their third album, Beg Your Pardon (Ernest Jennings Recording Co.), which is already earning accolades for its Wire-meets-New-Zealand-Indie-Pop sound. You can see Savak on January 10 at Union Pool, and tune in Wednesday night, December 12, to hear them live on WFMU.

Are you saying that cheri is heartless? Because then I, that is, um oops...

Holly in NC:
Not home yet but must remark on how much I love The Swingin' Neckbreakers generally & the Live for Buzz lp specifically.
AND some of the best live shows I've had pleasure to see.
Mailmen rock.

listener james from westwood:
holy crow, a cut from "rock and rule"! that film was in almost as heavy rotation in my group of friends as "heavy metal."

Sybil, I know you have a blinky light heart!

i'm dogsitting for a vacationing friend so i even get to listen to the over-air signal. (usually at home in brooklyn, the haitian pirate station is blocking the FMU air signal in the evenings.) so i am not in the stream census, but listening nonetheless, for any interested parties O:-)

How come it's the one who makes the most frequent and hackneyed requests who can't crack the wallet open? Sheesh. EFD called it. "After the fundraiser."

Kat in Chicago:
I actually googled "sybil blinky things" just now to make sure they were safe and sound for 2013

Holly in NC:
@G - Oh, you don't know me. While the hornet spray by my bed is theoretically there to blind creepy human intruders, I've been sorely tempted to use on oh, say, that one fat ass horse fly who's driving me nuts. If I didn't have cats I'd be sprayin' all over.

Wed. 3/20/13 9:52pm
Holly in NC:
@DaveB - If I can't hit a fat ass slow moving horsefly with a fly swatter, there is no way I can hit with that gun. Hand/eye not my thing. But I LOVE the concept. And looks like fun, like a nerf weapon.

Yeah that was wicked on Sunday night Evan, way to slap the skins. Chris T had a great 'Behind the Scenes' Hoof N Mouth edition show yesterday. Answered a bunch of things I'd always wondered about the gig. I recommend it to any other HNM geeks out there. Ahhh... post marathon shows...so nice.

@Uncle Michael there are some killer blogs out there with library music on them. I think Doug has listed some in his Mining the Audio Motherload posts on the FMU blogs in the past

I have to check out that Change the Beat as I have a lot of that Celluloid stuff on tape since ti made the XL Serve cut out bin in the early to mid 90's.

The bar between the playlist and comments is draggable.

Somewhere I have that Fab 5 Freddy 12'', unless same horrid person who stole my prized Salt & Pepa 12" back in late 80s grabbed that also.

I need to ask...am I the last music nerd to discover Jeffrey Glenn's Lost Jukebox series?

Pete from Boston (and NJ):
My fantasy league existed in 1978 in my street. For just this one kid there were 13 strikes before being out. Also, I get to be Mickey Rivers and you just have to get the ball back in the street before everyone has to stay at their base.

Figuring out how to use that application will be *fun*.

I had to do some wikipedia work to keep someone who seems either to be close to Peter M or a fanatical fan from trying to change a two-line summary of what the LA Times article said about that incident. I mean, I understand it's embarrassing and not yet adjudicated, but the LA Times is a reliable source to cite in this instance, pending emergence of any better information.

Wed. 3/20/13 11:45pm
G:
Sounds about right, Holly. Time will tell. But someone kept deleting any reference to it from his wikipedia bio -- and there was no speculation in the article. Someone just didn't even want there to be the most basic two-line mention of the charges. Creepy.

I have slsk working. I think I need to install it on the machine that really can serve up the goodies 24/7.

@Uncle Michael: I love the remake of "She's Not There" that he did as Neil McArthur!

G:
Yep, factually all you can report is charges filed, and see how things pan out -- though trying to look at the charges reasonably, some currently seem stronger than others based on what has been printed so far.

The Zombies always sounded years ahead of their time -- such a cool band!

Holly in NC:
@G - Is creepy, as 9x% folks I know consider Wiki to be gospel, and don't understand at all how easily entries can be compromised, modified, made up, etc.

Amd while I really do have a HUGE soft spot for Bauhaus & that killer Final Solution cover, not sure the man should be allowed to tour. The RUN part of hit & run is unforgiveable (aren't y'all glad I'm not a judge?)

...I think the CIA made Crack to have a drug to *really* do what Reefer Madness film shows. Meth is Nasty - sure mean no one no good...Thee Mighty Fevers like a GG Allin that could play!

Droll:
Holly, most math and science articles are free of drama. Depending on what you use Wikipedia for, it's at least as good as any university textbook.
